This is another in the KING BISCUIT KLONE series.  It's number 10, if you're keeping count.

The History of Bruce Hornsby on the King Biscuit Flower Hour:

The first Bruce Hornsby KBFH show had an air date of August 16, 1987. This was on 2-LPs. Discogs says it was sourced from their February 2, 1987 show at the Ritz in New York City.  The KBFH show has the following tracks:

Jacob’s Ladder
Every Little Kiss
Mandolin Rain
The Wild Frontier
The Red Plains
I Know You Rider
The Way It Is
On The Western Skyline

Tracks from this show were released as the promo LP Bruce Hornsby And The Range – Live - The Way It Is Tour 1986-87 (RCA-6275-1-RDJ) in 1987. Tracks are:
Every Little Kiss
The Long Race
The Way It Is (solo piano intro)
The Way It Is
Mandolin Rain
The Red Plains
On The Western Skyline

In 1990, KBFH issued a show on CD from the March 24, 1987 show at the Daytona Beach Band Shell in Daytona Beach, Florida.  The set list on the CD is:
Jacob's Ladder 
The Long Race 
Mandolin Rain 
Every Little Kiss 
The Red Plains 
I Know You Rider
The Way It Is

There is a streaming audio of Daytona at Concert Vault with the following track listing:
Jacob’s Ladder
The Long Race
Mandolin Rain
The Wild Frontier
The Red Plains
I Know You Rider
Piano Instrumental
The Way It Is
On The Western Skyline
Down The Road Tonight

The Concert Vault version adds "The Long Race," "On The Western Skyline," and "Down The Road Tonight."  "Piano Instrumental" is a long introductory section to "The Way It Is."  On the Concert Vault version, the two sections add up to 14 minutes; on the 1994 KBFH CD the two parts sum up a total of 12 minutes 30 seconds, so they may be edited down.  

The Concert Vault version does not list "Every Little Kiss."  Comparison with the other shows at CV prove that track is from the Ritz, New York City, NY February 2, 1987.

The Daytona Beach Band Shell edit showed up multiple times over the years.

07/09-15/90
03/16-22/92
01/25-31/93 (with G.E. Smith as the added second artist)
01/17-23/94 (this show)(with Blues Traveler as the second artist)
02/06-12/95 (with Rusted Root as the second artist)

Other things to note....the Blues Traveler first song ("Defense & Desire") is obviously faded out before it ends.

This is a tape I received in trade back in the 1980s.  Back then...before the release on LP of BBC sessions, before the internet...tracking this stuff down required typing lists of tapes for trade, paying for international postage, and mailing them off to addresses in England or Japan that were posted in the classified ads in the back of Goldmine.  You hoped they'd find something of interest on your list.  Communication took weeks, so you couldn't take the time to say "tell me about that Billy Bragg show, what's on it and how's it sound?"  The whole thing was a shot in the dark.

This one was pretty good.  A bit hissy, so it's not from a master, but it's close.  It's a fun show, with my favorite being Bragg's rewriting "Route 66" for an English road. Some of it was baffling: what the heck was Subbuteo?

Okkervil River is not a common band to see when it comes to searching for live recordings - I jumped on this one immediately. The recording is excellent - which is what I've come to expect from Alex Leary's recordings. And what a show! This was apparently a request night, as Will announced who each song was requested by. The setlist is a fan's dream and includes most of what I would have wanted to hear. Highlights are The President's Dead, Love to a Monster, Red and Okkervil River RIP. ~Zach Helm

A Dan Lampinski master audience recording @ flac

Dan Lampinski recorded over 100 concerts in the Providence/Boston area, mostly between 1974 and 1978. His earliest recordings were made with an internal microphone deck, and though they are somewhat lo-fi compared to his later work, some very great moments in rock history were captured for posterity. In late 1974 he bought a Sony TC-152SD tape recorder, a Sony ECM-99 stereo microphone, and began using Maxell cassettes. He was also fortunate enough to have a friend who provided excellent taping seats for many shows, resulting in high quality recordings. In 1977, he switched over to a Nakamichi 550 tape recorder, two Nakamichi CM-300 microphones, and continued using Maxell cassettes.

He recorded many of the major 70's bands: Yes, Genesis, Pink Floyd, Queen, Blue Oyster Cult, Frank Zappa, Jethro Tull, ELP, Kiss, Black Sabbath, The Who, Al Stewart, Alice Cooper, Jeff Beck, Bruce Springsteen, Supertramp, Jean-Luc Ponty, Moody Blues, Neil Young, The Faces, Rush, Rick Wakeman, Kansas, as well as several "under the radar" acts.

Dan never traded copies of his recordings, they are all essentially uncirculated. Some copies were made for friends, but these releases are the first time most of these recordings have ever seen the light of day, and are direct from his master cassettes. No EQ'ing has been done to any of the transfers. Feel free to EQ, matrix, patch, etc and re-post if you like, just give Dan credit for the original recording.

Recorded (mostly) in Boston, plus three tracks from Tower Theatre, Upper Darby ("Philadelphia") Dec. 5, 1985

Bootlegged as Roger Daltrey: Summertime Blues (That's Life TL 930024, 1992)

This is another in the KING BISCUIT KLONE series.

The concept is to duplicate the contents of the syndicated radio show, but with the content tracked.  This allows for easy navigation to the track you desire and allows the user to drop the commercials if they are of no interest.

As is sometimes the case with King Biscuit shows, the tracks from a concert were repeated in various configurations for many years.

Tracks from the Orpheum (and Tower) shows first turned up on a Roger Daltrey show broadcast on January 5, 1986.

A "Best of Roger Daltrey dated March 1, 1987 is likely from from the same source.

Dec 18, 1988 there was a split Daltrey  / Townshend / The Who show, with Daltrey's four songs in his segment credited to Boston December 1985.  (Substitute, Summertime Blues, Behind Blue Eyes/5:15 but Summertime Blues was probably from the Tower Theatre.)

Then there's this show.  After about 1990, KBFH began repeating the same shows with only the commercials changing, but Daltrey does not appear to have been one of the artists on repeat.  There was a Daltrey show from 2005, with a different set list, but all of the song were songs done at the Orpheum show.

Another of the cassettes from the Sam Elliot's Moustache Collection.  This one is from the second incarnation of the Stray Cats during the latter half of the 1980s.

Setzer had broken the band up at the height of their fame in 1984, then relented a few years later.  In 1986 and again in 1989 they issued albums, to less interest from radio and the public than before.
This broadcast finds the Stray Cats at Philadelphia's Sigma Sound Studios, famous for its association with the Philly Soul sound. The O'Jays recorded Backstabbers LP there, the Stylistics albums, and MFSB's TSOP (The Sound of Philadelphia) were recorded there.  When David Bowie "went soul" for the Young Americans album, most of the record was recorded at Sigma.

But what about this tape, which has nothing to do with soul music? 

Well, it's the Stray Cats, so you get the usual fleet-fingered fretboard fireworks from Brian Setzer.  The setlist mixes songs from the early 80s records with the current record ("Blast Off") they were promoting.  Plus...they do covers of "I Fought The Law" and "Twenty Flight Rock" which didn't turn up until on an official release until the 1990s.

The Stray Cats played at the Trocadero on May 12, and I've included a review of the show.
Sam Eliot's Moustache emailed me the following about the Sigma Sound sessions:  "The Sigma Studio shows were not advertised except on air. These were intimate shows recorded in a recording studio with small audiences. I believe you had to call in and win tickets to the shows, but I am not quite positive about that. They were trying to re-capture the feeling of the mid 70's broadcasts that WMMR used to air sporadically back then. Bonnie Raitt, Springsteen, Zevon did broadcasts there back in that time period."

This source is from the GWH cassette, a TDK SA 90 master copy of the broadcast, and transferred using Audioquest cables.  There is a 3.9 second patch in Roxanne at 6 minute 6 seconds where I repaired his "tape flip" from another source.

The artwork folder includes two copies of the newspaper ad (one from BAM Magazine, the second from the S.F. Chronicle entertainment tab section), the KFRC chart, a backstage pass, a ticket, a poster, an entertainment listing, two newspaper reviews (one by snooty jazz critic Philip Elwood), and a blurb expressing hope that the punk rockers at Zellerbach wouldn't mess up the Aqua Bears swimming club benefit taking place next door.  There's historical context for you...

The Police were on their first U.S. tour in support of their debut LP, Outlandos d'Amour, released in November 1978. While "Roxanne" had failed to chart in the U.K., it hit #32 on the Billboard Hot 100 in April 1979.  But the national charts aren't what was happening on the ground, and in the Bay Area, "Roxanne" spent two weeks on AM powerhouse KFRC's charts at #11.  It was at #27 the day before this concert, and note that the newspaper print ad bills them as "THE POLICE singing Roxanne."

So the crowd is noisy, primed for a hot show.  The Police perform "Can't Stand Losing You" twice. I thought they might have been slightly underprepared and ran out of material, but a look at other setlists shows this repetition was standard on this tour...and that they did have additional material.  The next night at the UC Davis Coffee House they added "Dead End Job" to the set.

This digitization features the "hosted" version.  The original sets sent to radio stations came with an additional "unhosted" version (a total of 4 LPs), allowing local radio DJ's to produce their own version of the show by reading from a script. Stations received both a hosted version with prerecorded announcements, and an unhosted version with a script, allowing the local disc jockey to do the lead ins and segment breaks.  The unhosted versions had "beds" of a live concert audience for the disc jockey to talk over, making it sound like he was at the show.   

You get 300 dpi scans of all four disc labels, instructions, two pages of the script, an entertainment listing confirming the date of the show, and a newspaper review of the show. Note that the script is pretty much useless, as it's for use with the unhosted version.

You get: flac files of waves, digitized Aug. 2023 from the syndicated radio discs; 300 dpi scans of the disc labels and cue sheet, and an ad for the show from Radio & Records May 21, 1982 issue.

I was unable to find a date for the show, but it's likely to be from early in 1982.  The band performs several songs from their second LP Below The Belt, which came out in 1982.

While I was not familiar with the group, Franke Previte went on to write "Hungry Eyes" and "(I've Had) The Time of My Life", both of which were featured in the 1987 film Dirty Dancing.

Oh....and I almost forgot.... once again, thanks to Voodoo Wagon pal, Sam Elliot's Mustache, for loaning me his copy of the original vinyl and shipping it 2,850 miles across the USA so that I could digitize it.

Bob Marley & the Wailers / The Quiet Knight, Chicago, IL June 10, 1975 WXRT-FM rebroadcast

Bob Marley
Quiet Knight, Chicago, IL
June 10, 1975 (according to currently circulating tapes)
digitized Aug. 2013 from a 1st generation copy on TDK SA100

My copy did not have a date, as it was from a rebroadcast of the show in the late 1980s. 
Marley played Monday and Tuesday, June 9 and June 10 (based on the review and the June 8 entertainment listing.) A second entertainment listing from Friday June 13 says Marley played two shows a night June 13, 14, and 15 Friday, Saturday and Sunday.  I note that the first entertainment listing had "Martin Hull and Ricky Jay" scheduled for Wednesday thru Sunday, so it looks like there was enough response that they bumped the other acts and added Marley for more shows.

There's a good analysis of this show, and information about the Quiet Knight at: https://legendaryreggae.com/2013/01/30/greatest-bootleg-ever/

I also lifted a Quiet Knight newspaper clipping from that site and added it to the artwork, and "Martin Hull" turns out to be Martin Mull.

You get: flac files of .wavs, plus a newspaper review, and three entertainment listings.

Here's another tape I got in trade.  It's of unknown generation. This one I got from a trader in the Chicago area.  As it's from a WXRT-FM rebroadcast in the 1980s, it's likely my copy is a first generation.  There's some hiss but it's pretty minimal.  

As to the date of the rebroadcast, the WXRT Intro mentions Newman's soundtrack to the The Natural, so it's after the May 1984 release date of the movie.  It leaves Newman as being without a recording contract, which puts it before the release of Land of Dreams in September 1988.

There's no venue mentioned, and the date announced is just "1972."

A search on Newspapers.com turns up a review and some entertainment listings from 1972.  Newman played the Quiet Knight in Chicago on April 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9 (Wednesday through Sunday), with three shows on Friday and Saturday, and two shows on Sunday. It is likely he played two shows a night on Wednesday and Thursday, too, but there were no individual listings for those nights, so that's guess.  David Bromberg was the opening act.

Tickets were a $3.00 cover with a two-drink minimum.

The Quiet Knight was at 953 W. Belmont Avenue.  It looks like the building is still there and it's now "Blaze of Pizza."

The KSAN-FM Boarding House tape from two months later (June 11) is similar, and far better known.  It's been pressed up on CD several times.

I'm surprised the Chicago concert is less well known. This has 19 songs, one more than the KSAN show.  Chicago has Young Girl, Cowboy, Simon Smith and the Amazing Dancing Bear, and Tickle Me, and San Francisco swaps those for Lover's Prayer, Dayton Ohio 1903, The Beehive State, Linda, and Memo To My Son.

20 Falling Up

21 The Way We Make A Broken Heart

22 My Edge of the Razor

23 Something Happens

I'm not sure if the "1975-1983" part is true.  That's how this was labeled when I traded for it back in the late 1980s. Most of the songs here released by Hiatt or covered by other artists seem to fall in 1980-1983, so I want to call out the 1975-1979 reference as questionable.

I don't know the generation, it's low, but with hiss.  It's mainly noticeable between tracks. Hiss removal usually make the music sound weird, and since the music sounds okay, I just applied fades on the hiss between the songs to make it less annoying.  My tape also had LONG gaps between each song, 8 to 20 seconds, so I tightened that up.

Several of these songs turned up on John Hiatt albums. Dave Edmunds covered Something Happens, Frankie Miller did "If I Can Love Somebody," Amos Garrett did "Everybody's Girl."  The Searchers covered "Ambulance Chaser" but it wasn't released until this century.

There's also a bunch of songs about which I could find no reference on the Internet, so I'm guessing at titles.

I gotta say...an O.V. Wright cover?  That's pretty groovy!

UPDATE:  Our friend Anonymous supplied us with some corrected titles, so I've followed his recommendations.  I've retagged the files with the corrected titles and added his comparison of these tracks to previously circulating demo tapes.

You get: Flac files of .wavs, 300 dpi scan of the cue sheet.

This is from the Sam Eliot's Mustache Collection, recorded directly from the original radio reel.  Heck, you can see the imprint of the reel right on the cue sheet so I made no attempt to clean it up.

I was unable to find a date for the show.  It is likely from April or May, as the band played several shows in the New England area during those two months.

As Commander Cody mentions WAAF-FM in the intro to "Hot Rod Lincoln," it's possible there was a local radio broadcast of the show, in addition to this syndicated version.  I ran some searches and came up with nothing, though. 

I have to say the sound quality on this is magnificent.  There's no hiss, great stereo separation...this is as good as any official release you're going to find. 

I've been collecting and trading radio shows since the 1980s, and I've never heard of the Backstage Ltd. shows until our pal Sam shared this with me. I did find a Billboard blurb from 1979 that mentions Backstage shows by Jean Luc Ponty, Tim Curry, and Crawler.  If they were producing shows from 1977 through 1979, there must be more evidence out there. If any of Our Beloved Audience knows anything about Backstage Ltd., please drop us a comment.

This isn't the Lost Planet Airmen, but the New Commander Cody Band.
